Why We Don’t Recommend Shower Resurfacing
Shower resurfacing is often marketed as a fast fix — but it rarely delivers lasting results. It involves spraying a chemical coating over the existing base, usually epoxy or enamel. While it may appear fresh at first, issues such as peeling, blistering, and poor adhesion are all too common.
At Inner Bath, we don’t resurface — because a LOT of our shower work involves repairing failed resurfacing jobs. We install precision-formed acrylic liners that outlast coatings and eliminate the need for demolition altogether.
Shower Relining Vs Shower Resurfacing
Thinking of resurfacing your shower? Be careful — while it may seem like a quick fix, shower resurfacing can lead to various issues that impact durability, hygiene, and cost over time. Compare your options below to see why relining is the smarter, long-term solution.

The Smarter Option: Shower Relining with Acrylic Inserts
Finally, a permanent fix that doesn’t involve tearing your bathroom apart.
At Inner Bath, our acrylic shower base relining system restores cracked or leaking trays quickly, cleanly, and for good — no demolition, no downtime.
We don’t patch over problems or rely on spray coatings. Instead, we install a moulded, diamond-textured acrylic liner over your existing base. No plumbing, no tiling, just a brand-new surface that’s sealed, waterproofed, and built to last.
How Shower Relining Works
Remove Existing Shower Screen
If your shower has a screen, we carefully remove it at the start of the process. This allows full access to your shower base and ensures a clean, seamless result when reinstalled.
Reinforce the Shower Base
We inspect your existing shower base and reinforce any cracks or weak spots. This stabilises the structure and prepares it for a secure liner fit.
Install Pre-Formed Liner
Next, we install a durable ABS acrylic liner, selected from our mould library to best match your shower base. It’s fitted tightly within the tiled area for a clean, watertight result.
Seal & Reinstall Shower Screen
Finally, we reinstall your original shower screen (or a new one, if supplied), sealing the area for a polished, professional finish.
The result?
A safe, hygienic, non-slip diamond-textured shower base that looks brand new — and stays that way. Our relining solution is odour-free, cost-effective, and backed by a 6-year guarantee. This is not a patch. It’s a full rebuild from the surface up — without touching your tiles. Inner Bath’s solution is the cleanest, quickest way to fix shower base cracks and issues — no tiling or plumbing required.
Need Shower Base Repair?
A cracked shower base isn’t something to ignore – it can lead to serious issues. What appears to be a minor surface flaw could be concealing significant damage beneath the surface. Water can easily seep through shower floor cracks, compromising waterproofing, causing mould, and weakening the structure underneath. If you’ve noticed leaks, musty smells, or tiles starting to lift, your shower base may already be at risk.
DIY patch-ups, such as sealant or resurfacing sprays, rarely last. These temporary fixes often peel and wear away — making things worse in the long run. Worse still, they can conceal the real extent of the damage until it becomes far more expensive to repair.
Here’s How We Repair Cracked Shower Bases
Inner Bath offers a better way: permanent, mess-free acrylic liner relining. Each insert is pre-formed to fit your existing base and backed with insulating polyurethane foam. It includes a durable polyurethane seal that enhances waterproofing between the existing surface and the new bath liner—no demolition needed. It’s a fast, reliable solution that’s ready to use the next day and comes backed by a 6-year warranty.
Signs You Need Shower Base Repairs
A damaged or deteriorating shower base doesn’t always start with a dramatic leak — most issues begin with subtle warning signs. If your shower floor is starting to show visible cracks, rust, peeling, has areas where water pools, or gives off a persistent mildew smell, it could be a sign of underlying damage.
These issues aren’t just cosmetic. Small fractures or flaking surfaces can let moisture seep beneath your base, leading to grout deterioration, water ingress, and even structural damage. If your shower has been resurfaced in the past and that finish is now peeling or rough, it’s time to consider a more permanent fix. Below are common signs you need professional shower base repairs:
If you’ve noticed one or more of these signs, it’s time to speak with Inner Bath — Australia’s trusted name in shower base repair. Let us restore your shower quickly, cleanly, and permanently.
